Google Chrome – WebKit update ?

December 3, 2008 · 1 Comment

Today I had to download Google Chrome, to work (verify) a bug. Same issue is present in Safari 3.2.1. Perhaps I should mention that both aren’t using the latest greatest WebKit as its core… So, I gave the nightly a shot… The bug wasn’t reproducibly with the nightly WebKit. Nice.

Since there is a huge G in Chrome… folks want to see fixes in there. Kinda more pressure instead of fixing a “Safari only” bug :-)

This all is fine, sure. But it is interesting that the Chrome browser uses an older WebKit than Safari 3.2.1…

Let’s hope there is an update out soon, that bundles the G browser with the latest, greatest WebKit.

MyFaces 2.0 – A community driven JSF 2.0 implementation

December 3, 2008 · 2 Comments

It is pretty cool to see that there is lot’s of activity on the JSF 2.0 implementation of the Apache MyFaces project. Lot’s of folks contribute via the JIRA issue tracker (filing bugs/tasks, submitting patches), or the mailing list.

Really, a good community driven effort!

Btw. it is still time to join. Just subscribe to our dev-mailing list ;-)
